A Brief tale :

The Scourge of The Bullock

This Brief tale The Scourge of The Bullock is very intriguing to every one individuals. Appreciate perusing this story.

Quite a while in the past, in a little town carried on with an elderly person with her girl. While the elderly person was focused, her girl was apathetic and self centered. They had a bullock. "We ought to take legitimate consideration of our bullock." The elderly person would agree. "Hah! Creatures ought to serve us, not we serve them," the girl would answer.

There was a lake, at some separation from the elderly person's home. Each evening, she used to take the bullock to the lake to have a shower and to hydrate. In the mean time the languid girl would eat and rest.

At some point, the elderly person became sick. She mentioned her little girl to take the bullock to the lake. "It is extremely hot today, dear! The bullock should be parched," said the elderly person. "Look! I have a few desserts here. I realize you love desserts, dear. Take the bullock for a beverage. While he is drinking water, you can eat these desserts," the elderly person added, giving a case of desserts to her girl. The avaricious young lady concurred.

In any case, when she was out of her mom's sight, the languid young lady attached the bullock to a tree and plunked down to eat the desserts. The parched bullocks trusted that the little girl will wrap up eating the desserts. "I want to believe that she eats quick. I'm truly parched," thought the bullock. However, subsequent to having eaten every one of the desserts, the little girl got back and deceived her mom that she had taken the bullock to the lake and that the bullock hydrated from the lake.

The bullock was very furious. He reviled the little girl, "In your next birth, you might be brought into the world as a Chatak, a bird that hydrates when just it downpours. As you kept me parched today, so will you stay parched."

The Scourge of The Bullock worked out. In her next birth, the little girl was conceived a Chatak. It is said that a Chatak is a bird that sits tight for downpours, staying parched over time, in spite of having water all over.

The Curse of The Bullock is quite interesting to all the people. Enjoy reading this story.

Long time ago, in a small village lived an old woman with her daughter. While the old woman was hard working, her daughter was lazy and selfish. They had a bullock. “We should take proper care of our bullock." The old woman would say. “Hah! Animals should serve us, not we serve them," the daughter would reply.

There was a pond, at some distance from the old woman’s house. Every afternoon, she used to take the bullock to the pond to have a bath and to drink water. Meanwhile the lazy daughter would eat and sleep.

One day, the old woman fell ill. She requested her daughter to take the bullock to the pond. “It is very hot today, dear! The bullock must be thirsty," said the old woman. “Look! I have some sweets here. I know you love sweets, dear. Take the bullock for a drink. While he is drinking water, you can eat these sweets," the old woman added, handing a box of sweets to her daughter. The greedy girl agreed.

But as soon as she was out of her mother’s sight, the lazy girl tied the bullock to a tree and sat down to eat the sweets. The thirsty bullocks waited for the daughter to finish eating the sweets. “I hope she eats fast. I am really thirsty," thought the bullock. But after having eaten all the sweets, the daughter returned home and lied to her mother that she had taken the bullock to the pond and that the bullock drank water from the pond.

The bullock was extremely angry. He cursed the daughter, “In your next birth, you may be born as a Chatak, a bird that drinks water when only it rains. As you kept me thirsty today, so will you remain thirsty."

The Curse of The Bullock came true. In her next birth, the daughter was born a Chatak. It is said that a Chatak is a bird that waits for rains, remaining thirsty throughout the year, despite having water all around.
